Manage episode 449044638 series 2804948
Florence Cook, a remarkable medium of the late 19th century, claimed the ability to materialize a spirit named Katie King, captivating audiences with her otherworldly performances. This episode delves into the fascinating intersection of spiritualism, science, and skepticism as we explore Florence's journey alongside the esteemed scientist William Crookes, who sought to validate her abilities through rigorous experimentation.
With a backdrop of seances and spirit cabinets, we examine whether Florence truly channeled Katie or if it was all an elaborate hoax. The episode also touches on the societal perceptions of mediums and the blend of magic and spirituality during this era. Join us as we untangle the mysteries surrounding Florence, Katie, and the blurred lines between the supernatural and the scientific!
